new guam magazine out, GU. great photos, but mostly from off-island photographers. have read three articles, one was great, two annoyed me greatly. i'll reserve judgement until after i've read at least two more issues.

We're on the 10th and 11th floor of a corporate high rise on Poydras Ave., right near St. Charles. We have generators and tons of food and water. It is 5 of us total. I am not sure how the internet connection will be affected. I have a camera and my gun.



screw the news, i'm reading this. stay safe, you crazy kids.

i can't help but think that mainland officials could pay attention to us a little bit more, and observe our storm/typhoon preparation plans and our emergency response plans. despite the corruption, the ineptitude and greed of our government, i think that during a storm, the established system works well. i know we are tiny, but going through numerous supertyphoons has to count for something, right?

anyway, i was wondering if anyone has discussed lessons learned from guam before, and i came across this interesting press release.

juuuust a little too late.
